VIRGINIA,s COUPONS.
Judge Bond Holds That Virginia
Must Accent Them as Money.

MUST Accept Them as Money.
BALTIMORE, Feb. 2.-Judge Bond, sit
ting this afternoon as the United States
District Court OF Eastern Virginia, heard
an interesting habeas corpus case in
VolVlng che constitutionality OF the Vir-
ginia coupon acts of 1856. The case
was on petition Of Richard l.. FliZ2er-
ala, salesman for Austin Fields d Co.,
shoe dealers of Philadelphia. The lrm
on Dec l, 1856, deposited with g. Green
now, treasurer Of Richmond, 500 in Vir-
gina coupons and 81 Is in money for the
purpose Of obtaining a license to sell
goods by sample in Virginia. Mr..
fitzgerald was arrested in New
bern, Pulaski county. Va, Jan.
20 last, on a charge of selling goods with
out license, the Treasurer having re-
luseu 10 accept coupons in payment of
Tue license, as the act states that coupons
so onered must be accompanied by the
same value in money, the money to be
held by the Treasurer until the coupons
are ascertained to be genuine. Judge
Bond discharged Mr.. Fitzgerald, and in
glVlbg his opinion said that the acts Of
virginia of 1855 and 1886 constitute one
law, although passed al different times,
ana mat they are unconstitutional, las they
impair the coupon act, which provides
mat coupons shall be received for all
5Iale cues and taxes. Virginia, Judge
BOND says, has made coupons as much
legal tender as greenback, and the
party Offering them could not be called
upon to prove their geuuineness by the
deposit OF collateral. Attorney General
Ayres, OF Richmond, who represents the
state OF Virginia, asked for an appeal,
which was granted. E. G.. Sherwood, a
salesman for the Spencer Optical Manu-
featuring Company of New YORK, who
was arrested and released on bail in
Richmond on a similar charge, short
time ago, was present and by consent of
counsel was made party to the petition.

NEW York, Feb. 2.-The Southern
Telegraph Company, which was sold
under foreclosure proceedings at Rich
mond, Va, Tuesday, was bought in the
interest OF the Western Union Telegraph
Company, which has owned a majority
OF the bonds for nearly year. The price
at which the property was sold was $780,

United Lines Company, whose last bid
was $450.000, had continued TO contest.
The acquisition OF actual control does
not affect the relations of the companies
because a contract was made betw cen

that time the contract has been altered
